• BTS Chapter 5 - close is deprecated

    From Brian Thompson@21:1/5 to All on Tue Jul 6 08:30:01 2021
    Referencing: https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-bugs/ch-mailcontrol.en.html

    Under section 5.1 -- How it works, there is a list of available commands
    to interact with the BTS control server. The first command listed is
    `close bugnumber`, but that command is deprecated. I found this out by
    using the bts CLI tool:

    bts --mutt close 990427
    bts: Closing 990427 as you requested.
    Please note that the "bts close" command is deprecated!
    It is usually better to email nnnnnn-done@bugs.debian.org with
    an informative mail.
    Please remember to email 990427-submitter@bugs.debian.org with
    an explanation of why you have closed this bug. Thank you!

    We should update the docs to reflect that `close` is deprecated and add
    the `done` command above or underneath it.
